Heavy Hitters USA

Founded in 2004 by Kent Ward

For over 20 years, Heavy Hitters USA has been dedicated to providing after school and summer programs that help local youth build life and work readiness skills. Through structured fitness training, we promote a positive, healthy, and conscientious lifestyle.

Heavy Hitters USA is committed to developing character and encouraging positive decision making in young people ages 5 to 18. Participants are paired with coaches and mentors who help them build self-respect, discipline, and a strong sense of community through service and teamwork.

Since its founding, Heavy Hitters USA has offered consistent sports training, exercise programs, and mentorship that keep at-risk youth engaged in constructive activities. Our programs encourage young people to channel their energy into the gym or onto the field, providing a safe, supportive alternative to conflict and negative influences.
